Will Smith Refused to Kiss Another Man
While the original script for Six Degrees of Separation contained a scene in which Smith, who played a gay con artist, was directed to kiss another man, the actor was so uncomfortable with the idea that he approached Denzel Washington for advice. Ultimately, he refused to do the kiss, but he later stated that it was “very immature” and that he “wasn’t emotionally stable enough to artistically commit to that aspect of the film.”
